Yeah, I must admit, Ty Tabor is in my blood somewhere...back in '92, my band always played Goldilocks, silent wind, to name a couple. Ear Candy was a cool CD as well.
In regards to switch, I just split using 5Way w/middle pickup.
I use the J-station for amp sheens.
Strat78 and I are firm believers in the '78 model Duncan. Alnico II magnets are very 'sweet'.
Peace and Love, ET
